Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five
centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various
off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The
story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along
with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues
with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]
The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?
These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.
After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!
Panel 1
Diana stands before Wickberg and his attendants.
Diana: Sr. Wickberg, I presume? My name is Diana Martelli.
Wickberg: Ah, the famously brutalized refugee.
Wickberg: I must say, you look much more interesting in person.
Panel 2
Medium close-up on Diana. We can see Areum and one of the plebes behind her.
Caption: I wasn't sure whether he was alluding to that ridiculous get-up deClayre put on me for Tchaikowski's net-stream, or simply coming on to me. I chose to ignore the comment.
Diana: I'm conducting background research for a docu project I'm working on.
Diana: The topic involves the unsolved murder of the gynoid Hyami, who was once in your employ.
Caption: The 'docu project' bit wasn't completely a lie. I did plan on making a docu of this case after I'd solved it.
Panel 3
Medium four-shot of Wickberg and his four attendants. The gynoid on the left (Gynoid 1) is speaking.
Wickberg: Hayami?
Gynoid 1: She was our security on the House of Demons promotional tour, four years two cycles ago.
Wickberg: Ah, yes, I remember. Big girl. No sense of humor, but the job didn't require that.
Panel 4
Pan to include Diana, Gynoid 1, and Wickberg, who looks a bit annoyed.
Diana: No sense of humor?
Gynoid 1: She didn't laugh at the boss' jokes.
Wickberg: My jokes are professionally crafted, and failure to appreciate them is a sign of … well … humorlessness. Believe me, it's true.
